In addition, recent City and County <br />uploaded with your application. <br />improvements include a separated trail along Snelling Avenue North from <br />Lake Johanna Boulevard, north to W. County Road E2, connecting to an <br />existing trail section. The proposed trail, walking and ADA improvements <br />will fill in existing walkway gaps and completely connect the walking system <br />directly to Mounds View High School. This trail completes direct <br />connections from Lake Johanna Boulevard, Bethel University, Valentine <br />Hills Elementary School, Valentine Park directly to Mounds View High <br />School, connecting to future trail improvements north also. The proposed <br />improvements include full separation of the trail sections from the roadway <br />with concrete curb and gutter, filling in missing trail and walkway segments <br />and utilizing existing curb and gutter for separation. ADA improvements <br />will be provided at each intersection and ADA compliance at all driveway <br />crossings. Trail sections include a minimum, a 2-foot clear zone and an <br />8-foot trail, where the trail is immediately adjacent to the road, about 1/3 of <br />the project length. The remaining sections will provide a minimum 6-foot <br />boulevard buffer between the back of curb and an 8-foot trail section. The <br />proposed trail sections are along the west side of Snelling Avenue and the <br />south side of Lake Valentine Road. The Mounds View High School and <br />Valentine Park are on these same sides of the road, eliminating crossings <br />at major intersections for students using the new trail. <br />J.
